 jna for Debian
 --------------
 
-This package has been patched to use external libffi and to build only
-the library for the current architecture. However, the libffi version
-contained in jna's svn repository is itself patched, and the absence
-of this patch in debian's libffi causes one of libjna's tests to
-fail. The patch to libffi has already been submitted upstream [1].
+According to the current Debian policy for java [1], all jvm should
+include /usr/lib/jni in their default library search path. Apparently
+this is not the case; if libjnidispatch.so is not found when calling
+jna, please add "-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni" to your java
+invocation.
